Chlorine Dioxide makes things clean A brighter shade of Tangerine A cure? No, so let's not #start But will it disinfect a Fart? #vss365 Written in the first weeks of COVID lockdown when a dickhead suggested injecting bleach might be a cure

Morning The moon still high 27th October 2026 #Photography

The path we #travel Missing the gap in the hedge Winter on its way #Vss365 #Haiku 26th October 2026 #Photography

After months of being in the company of family The leaf caught the wind to #travel alone And find it's fortune #Vss365 26th October 2026 #Photography

Halloweenish Hunter's Moon Stay off the moor 25th October 2026 #Photography

High Hunter's Moon 25th October 2026 #Photography

After all the training miles All the commitment The last obstacle to overcome Is the fortnight of #taper Fueling a terrifying nervous doubt After that It's just another run #Vss365

Finishing a book feels like saying farewell 25th October 2026 #Photography #Alphabetchallenge #WeekPForPaper

I walk with her through the museum’s Hall of Weapons: A steady evolution from flint arrowheads to triangular, transnuclear orbital drones. Then abrupt, empty hallway. “Curator,” the child asks. “What happened?” “Progress,” I answer. “Finally.” #vss #sff

Many #miles from home Body wrecked, innards scattered Autumn wheelie bin #Vss365

Fallen leaves chase a merry orbit in the corner of the yard Tumbling cackling playground children And the hustle of cloud above no longer feels intimidating Instead it's #fueling joy in the autumnscape Digging smiles out of the grey #Vss365

Mine won't be everyone else's And yours won't be everything I'd want So why dream? Utopia would no #doubt Be a lonely existence #Vss365

Paper is for painting on I'll waste no more time on #doubt The drive for perfection Is nothing but a trap #Vss365

From the first explosive stride Full #commitment is required There is no seasons end without it #Vss365

A lone Buzzard sits in the ploughed brown pre crop field Witnessed by a bevy of #nervous Pheasants They peck peck peck at the soil And the Buzzard just watches The distance has balance #Vss365

Alice looking through the glass 17th October 2026 #Photography

John stood there puzzled The crowd in their seats looked visibly shocked The Clown was on the floor Looking equally stunned by this random attack In all his combat #training, John had never questioned the instruction "If you get an opportunity be ruthless Always go for the juggler" #Vss365

I navigate pathways to your subconscious mind Writing notes to leave for you to find At #unexpected times To read them in the cloudscapes Sunsets Faces Places And birdsong The thuttering wind And sting of hail on your upturned mouth Small pain to remind you that you are alive and smiling #Vss365

Regret was futile We had declined to help our neighbors In their hour of need We declined to share our modest harvest When theirs failed Now we needed their help and they wouldn't They couldn't They were all #dead from starvation The blatant truth #Vss365

Words spill from my hand But will I click post? A daily act of #bravery #Vss365

Dawn comes without a #sound Creeping under eyelids Which were tight with dreamlight But sunrise found a way in #Vss365 13th October 2026 #Photography

A fantastic night of music and musicianship 8th October 2026 #Photography

A spark generates a start Slow burn Flame carried on to flame Without that No names No love No joy No-one to blame Without the #sin to make that first ember No heat No cause to remember #Vss365

And as the moon dipped below the cloud base The #island of dogs fell silent Waiting for the one howl To chill every drop of blood #Vss365 7th October 2022 #Photography

There is a stigma attached to the word quit Suggesting decisions taken too easily If only there was more moral fibre Then there would never be a need to stop But Maybe to paraphrase No goal is an #island Each task we set our sights on Sits inside a life And sometimes life takes priority #Vss365

The Robin sits quiet in rare moments Maybe witnessing clarity Head cocked to the side Before being sucked back into the terrifying vortex Which is it's #hurricane of birdsong #Vss365 10th May 2023 #Birds #Photography

Piece hall Halifax 4th October 2026 #Photography

In the crisp night air The kitchen unfurls An aromatic #lure Which floats and curls Unseen drifting downwind Until it finds it's quarry Burying hooks into each nostril There'll be no escape And sure enough The phone rings Hello, how can I help? Chicken Tikka Jalfrezi and pilau rice please #Vss365

A dew dropped star 3rd October 2026 #Wildflower #Photography

There are #mountain peaks And valley plains Never touched by flowing water But traversed by man That's Pandora's box Lid lifted #Vss365 2nd October 2026 #Photography

Slaughter in the sky Blood leaches through layered #cloud The sun gravely falls #Vss365 #Haiku 18th July 2025 #Photography
